Child rape victim’s condition stable

“Conscious, alert and talking” is how the Medical Superintendent at the All-India Institute of Medical Sciences here described the condition of the five-year-old rape victim, who was found brutalised, and was transferred to the hospital on Friday in a critical condition.

The announcement about the girl’s health raised the hopes of millions of her well-wishers across the country. The manner in which she had been kidnapped, confined and assaulted over three days by a neighbour at Gandhi Nagar in North East Delhi has shaken the collective conscience of the people.

The outrage was so intense that many of the protesters even reached AIIMS on Friday to demand the strictest of punishment for the culprit, who has since been arrested from Bihar.

Although the girl is reportedly out of danger and “all her vital parameters are under permissible limits,” she is under close observation, the AIIMS official said.

In the medical bulletin read out around noon, Medical Superintendent D.K. Sharma also said the girl underwent surgery on Friday night, hours after she was shifted to the hospital from Swami Dayanand Hospital.

Mr. Sharma said she had suffered severe injuries in her perineum and a colostomy was done to divert stools. On Friday, doctors at Swami Dayanand Hospital said the victim had superficial injuries near the lips and cheek. There was a tear in the vagina and rectum.

While operating on her, the doctors found three candles and a hair-oil bottle inserted inside her, which led to infection in the abdomen.

Ask the society to root out evil? then what are they gonna do? nourish the evil?????!!!!!!! it should be a collective effort ... they shouldn't wash their hands off this!!!

All our Gods are female,our nation is called motherland. But we Rape them, kill them before they are born, burn them for dowry. and go to temple to worship a female God. We are the most hypocrite society on the earth. By the way leave this, we have more important things to worry about, IPL is on, Sharukhan new hair style, Kareena new look, these things are more important

Those who blame girls" sense of clothing would now say a 5 year innocent girl, shouid have been covered and one they would say girls should be born covered from their mother"s womb.We have lost faith in executive.its judiciary who should take suo moto and make stringent laws which not only do justice to this child but also instigate fear in hearts of monsters who are beasts in face of humans.

Govt. should enact laws more stringently so that such heinous crimes do not recur. To me, severe punishment is to be given to the offender. The same punish what he had to the tiny girl, like candle, bottle insertion, to be done to this fellow with large size so that he knows the pinch of it. Mere hanging will not serve purpose. Of course, he should be hanged and before that all types of punishments to be given made public like what is being done in Saudi Arabia. The role played by police is highly deplorable and demoralizing. Police primary duty is to protect the people, and if they do not know the fundamentals they do not deserve to be in that dept. They police dept. should be given lessons by taking services of Ms.Kiran Bedi who brought reforms on jails. Instead of reforming culprits, police should be reformed and know the ethics how to behave with public.

Death punishment by hanging should be mandatory for all convicted rapists. Atleast all child rapists should be hanged till death. Child rape law should be gender neutral. Women found guilty of filing a false rape case or false molestation case or false outrage of modesty case should be severely punished.
